my considerd project - C++

[scroots]

I am considering doing a project in c++ to make an icon next to the clock so you right click on it and have a menu with subcatergories.you can then choose from the list of my options that i put in whilst making it, so if you click opera it opens opera web browser and if you click MSN messenger it opens msn messenger and so on.

would this be a big/small prject?
are there any tutorials on this kind of thing?
